One of the greatest things you can have as a person is your mind! Your mind is what drives you to do what you do and be who you are. Your mind is where every idea, every concept, your feelings, your beliefs, your desires, your intentions, and your opinions are first created and conceived.

Your mind is so powerful that though you can’t see it or physical touch it, you’re subconsciously aware that it’s there, a part of you, and it’s an integral ingredient in what makes you YOU!
Most times, we often underrate just how powerful the human mind is. We’re totally oblivious to the fact that, your mind has the power to bring alive anything and whatsoever you program into it. Humans are known to have different personalities and attributes, but it’s our minds that makes us truly stand out and different from any other person out there.

We associate ourselves with various desires such as emotion, greed, love, hatred, joy, anger, but have you ever stopped to think about why you’re so much influenced towards any of these elements? It’s all about what you’re feeding your mind with!
Feed your mind with love and teach it to show compassion to people around and that’s what you’d get. Feed your mind hatred and you’d get pain and hurt. Your mind is constantly working without rest, trying to manifest your strongest desires into action. It feeds on your thoughts and grows like a seed inside of you.

You have to realize that your mind is so powerful that it needs to be trained. Why does your mind need training? Glad you asked – I’ll tell you. The first step to becoming successful in life is to know how to stay focused towards achieving your goals and aspirations. Your mind is the key to all of these. You have to make a decision today to train your subconscious mind to think positively.
Everything you are as a person began with a thought. If you neglect to feed your mind with positivity, you’re only leaving room for negativity and that won’t take you very far in life.

Dare to dream! Dare to imagine! Tame your mind to aim for success and greatness. Every day you wake up, tell yourself that you’re different and you’re successful. Go out there and put in the best effort into whatever you do. Never give up, never give room for negativity. Change your mindset to think positive. Don’t be afraid to imagine. You have so much greatness inside of you and you can’t let negative thoughts get in your way.

You may think its normal to be pessimistic but you should know that your thoughts are like a small seed which can grow out of proportions and manifest itself in your life and influence your everyday actions and decisions.
If you feed your mind with negative and pessimistic thoughts, there’s always the tendency that you are laying the foundation of self-doom and failure in your life.

The kind of mindset you have towards your career can also affect you; always thinking negatively can rub off on other people.

People in positions of help may turn you down, people may gradually begin to desert you and your social life will become a mess.
Your thoughts and mindset is sacred, guard it. If you’re a person that’s aiming to achieve success in life, you’ll want to begin thinking positively for a start. Your mindset impacts your consciousness one way or the other.

The stories behind great and successful people like Nelson Mandela and Oprah Winfrey gives us a lot to take home. These are people that came through regardless of the circumstances they found themselves in. They had full control over the kind of thoughts that went through their minds every day.

They were ever conscious of the fact that their thoughts were instrumental if they ever wanted to make it, and then they learnt to harness it. They taught themselves to believe in themselves and in things they wanted. This is where many people go wrong, they are afraid to imagine and most of all, they are afraid to believe in themselves. Thinking positively or negatively goes a long way in determining if you’ll achieve your dreams or not.
Let’s look at somethings you can do to improve on your mindset and thinking;

1. Believe in yourself: Never let what people say about you get to you. Always believe in yourself, this is the first step in improving your thoughts and mindset towards things.

2. Visualise your dreams and aspirations: Someone who thinks negatively never takes the time out to dream and have aspirations because they believe that nothing good ever comes out of what they do. You must change that; work on yourself, open your mind, have a goal in life and work towards achieving it. This helps to put you on the right track and keeps you determined and focused on something.

3. Refrain yourself from thinking negatively: It may not be easy at first but you must learn that negative thoughts corrupt your mind. They have the tendency to manifest in your daily actions if not checked. Try to always think positive. Appreciate yourself always. Keep your mind focused on things that are fruitful and rewarding.

Great men and women of power and influence such as Mahatma Gandhi, Martin Luther King Jr, Nelson Mandela and Oprah Winfrey all have one thing in common. The power to control their thoughts and mindset.

Their thoughts and mindset alone have led them to the path of success that no one would have ever dreamed and imagined.
Your thought is one of the most powerful assets you possess in life. It’s what differentiates you from other people in the outside world. Who do you see when you stand in front of the mirror every day?

Do you see someone who feels that they are of no good and are useless to the community and even themselves?

Or perhaps you see someone with a shattered personality and mindset who never thinks good of anything.
That is what negative thinking can do to you; you always have this disposition that nothing good will ever come from whatever you do…
